The Woman From Hell

"Lame." I lowered my head, not wanting to look at him anymore. I thought he had something serious to tell m e. I did not expect him to just be bored and tease me.

Heidi's working efficiency was consistently good. She had been working with me for the past few years. I seldom had to worry about her, and I felt assured working with her.

I was feeling a little sleepy now. I yawned after a while of going through the stack of documents that needed t o be signed.

"Go inside and take a nap. I'll help you sign them." Theo put down his documents and took away the stack in my hands.

Theo's office was the same as the one I had in Nectarine Entertainment. There was a small bedroom i n the office. However, even if I chose to sleep here, I probably would have a hard time sleeping with all those people coming in and out of the office.

"No thanks.” I shook my head and pulled myself together.

However, it was like he did not hear what I said. He put down the documents, lifted his hands, and carried me in his arms. He then lay me down on the bed. He

took off my shoes and tucked me in with the blanket. He said, "Close your eyes. Get some sleep. I'll wake you up when it's noon."

"I don't want to." I stood up and wanted to get down from the bed.

He forcefully pinned me back down. He raised his eyebrows and looked at me, speaking in a cold tone, " You can’t sleep alone? Do you want me to cuddle you t o sleep?"

"No, thank you. I can sleep." I lay down on the bed again in a hurry and covered myself with the blanket.

I closed my eyes.

Was this a joke? If the others knew that the president was tucking me in for a nap in the middle of the day, would I still be able to face them the next day?

He chuckled and said nothing more. He adjusted the temperature of the air conditioner, closed the door gently, and left.

After I watched him leave, I threw back the covers and sat up again. I had no intention to sleep now. I thought of looking at my phone for a while but could not find i t. The thought that he took my phone away came across my mind all of a sudden.

It seemed that he really had the prescience. I lay back down on the bed, feeling bored. I stared at the ceiling, gradually falling into a trance.

Since last night, the feeling of being pampered and treated kindly by Theo had made me find it to be unreal. Apart from that, it was the first time he ignored Cindy when she was whining to him.

The reason he was treating me like this was probably that he felt sorry I accidentally fell down the stairs last time!

The more I thought about it, the more unpleasant I felt. I got out of bed, gently opened the door, and planned to take my phone back.

I did not see Theo at the office desk, but I heard his voice coming from the balcony. I listened to him, paying extra close attention. "Perform an MRI. Get her a full medical check-up. Call me if there's anything else. If she’s fine, just send her straight back to Petra. B e sure to send her in person."

Right! Cindy was the one he cared most about in his heart. Even though he did not personally send her to the hospital just now, that did not mean he was not concerned about her.

She was the only person who was truly in his heart and the one whom he loved most! He had no affection for me. What he had for me was only a sense of responsibility and it was because I was pregnant. That was the reason why he was accommodating with everything.

Jealousy surged in my heart, and it felt unpleasant.

He had just ended his call. When he came back and saw me standing there, he was startled for a moment but immediately returned to normal. He frowned and said in a deep voice, "Didn't you just lie down? Why are you up again?"

"I wanted to drink some water and take my phone as well.” I lifted the phone that I held in my hand while showing a smile.

"Why do you have to look at your phone if you're sleeping? Get some rest." His voice was calm.

"Alright." I nodded my head, turned around, and went back to the bedroom. The harmonious atmosphere from earlier had vanished in just a second. It was back to being cold as usual.

I returned to the room and spent a long time in a daze.

Fortunately, pregnant women were easily fatigued. I fell asleep after spending some time thinking about things.

When I woke up again, a few hours had already passed. To be precise, I was woken up by the noises of an argument outside. I could only hear Theo shouting, "Don't blame me for being harsh on you if you dare to d o anything like this again!"

"Brother, can't you see who I'm doing this for?" It was Zedd’s voice.

"Shut up! Don't you stick your nose into other people's business." Theo raised his voice.

The soundproofing of the room was not that good. Normally when Theo was taking a rest here, no one would dare to talk loudly outside, so it did not affect him much.

I stood up and walked out of the room.

Outside the room, Theo was sitting in front of his office desk with a terrible expression on his face. NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

Zedd was sitting opposite him, and he looked angry too.

When they saw me coming out amidst their fight, they tactfully shut their mouths at the same time. Zedd glared at me in disgust, turned around, and left without looking back.

I had no idea what I did that pissed the young master off. I was puzzled.
